Presidential Assignment

A history teacher gave each of her students a U.S. President to research. Each student was to give a five page report on the major actions made by their President. When it was time to present, one student had only one sentence about his President, yet he received full credit for his project. Why?

Answer

The President the student was assigned was William Henry Harrison, who died of pneumonia one month after being sworn into office. He wasn't able to make any actions as President, and that is exactly what the student wrote.Hide
